Definitions

  • the invention relates to a convertible vehicle with an at least partially provided with a cover roof, wherein the reference is held at its transversely outer edges on movable side frame members, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the front roof end is the upper layer of the package formed by the laid roof
  • the front roof end is as wide as possible rear roof area, which includes the rear window to be able to train.
  • the side barrel is often fixed and can not be changed arbitrarily over the longitudinal course of the vehicle, since the side windows should be retractable into straight shafts of the body. The width of the side windows is therefore limited to such requirements customizable.
  • a motor vehicle is shown with a roof having side roof frames.
  • On the side roof frame is a top cloth of the roof arranged.
  • the lateral roof frames are also connected to a sealing device, which cooperate in the closed roof position with a viewing window of doors.
  • a motor vehicle is shown with side windows, which border in its upper part to a sealing device of a lateral roof frame.
  • the sealing device is arranged on support rails with legs on the roof frame section.
  • the invention is based on the problem of achieving a width adjustment of the roof with respect to the width of predetermined parts, the roof can be stored to save space.
  • the strips taper towards the rear against the direction of travel, resulting in only a widening of the front roof end, whereas the roof can be narrowed toward the rear.
  • the roof receiving space can be narrowed down to save space.
  • the top roof end deposited in a Z-fold at the roof opening in a constant orientation at the top can then laterally project beyond the roof areas below and cover up in the manner of a cover.
  • Mitbewegige the strips with the roof opening is ensured when the strips are divided into several sections corresponding to the individual lateral frame members.
  • strips between the frame part and the reference edge have an outer surface which, when the roof is closed has transversely outward and a downward extension direction
  • this can also be designed as a sensor or decoration surface, for example, a pinching during roof closing preventing sensors, LEDs or decorative elements, such as chrome lines include.
  • a windshield laterally enclosing frame part as part of an A-pillar can be provided on the opposite side facing the direction of travel of the A-pillar a transversely outwardly projecting and the width of the closed side windows outwardly superior visible edge, which is an adaptation to the side Overhang of the roof opposite the window bin allows.
  • This viewing edge can also be provided with lighting, camera or sensor units, for example a rear-view camera, in particular if the solder points in this area with a component to the rear and almost parallel to the vehicle.
  • Sectionally illustrated inventive convertible vehicle 1 can, as in Fig. 1 indicated, be both provided with at least one rear seat 11 four- or multi-seat vehicle as well as a two-seater.
  • the roof 2 can be moved manually or fully or partially automatically and can be stored to its opening in or on the rear vehicle area.
  • this front roof end 5 can form an upper optical termination in the manner of a cover for the deposited package of the roof 2 even with its upward-pointing side 6.
  • Another overarching cover or the like is then dispensable.
  • the cover 4 At its transverse outer edges 7 of the cover 4 is held indirectly on longitudinally extending and movable side frame members.
  • three frame parts 8, 9, 10 are provided one behind the other, wherein the rear frame part 10 is formed here in one piece with the main column 12 extending downwards to the window breast line 11.
  • the frame parts 8, 9, 10 are provided with seals 15 against side discs 13, 14.
  • Between the lateral seals 15 of the frame parts 8, 9, 10 and the outer edges 7 of the cover 4 are arranged over the entire length or, as here, at least over a portion spacer strips 16, the width of closed side windows 13, 14, the so-called Disc window, outward in the vehicle transverse direction superior extension component have.
  • the roof 2 depending on the width of the strips 16 at its edges 7 opposite closed side windows 13, 14 protrude in the vehicle transverse direction and thus be wider than would actually be required for the pure covering function of the closed roof 2.
  • This can result in the roof shelf an increased width, for example, the front roof end 5, whereby the remaining there lateral Column are reduced, so that the optics is improved in the stored state.
  • the strips 16 are divided into several sections corresponding to the individual lateral frame parts 8, 9, 10 and therefore movable with them. Both within a section and in total, the spacer bars 16 need not have a uniform width, but may vary as required.
  • the strips 16 may taper towards the rear in the direction of travel F, which may result in a particular width, for example only of the front roof end 5, and the roof 2 narrows towards the rear and approaches the window bin.
  • Such a taper of the strips 16 towards the rear is shown here in the drawing and in particular with reference to the sectional views of the FIGS. 5 to 8 recognizable.
  • the thickness of the strips 16 can be up to a few centimeters and taper to a few millimeters.
  • the strips 16 do not go all the way to the rear frame part 10, but end shortly before the rear end of the central frame part. 9
  • the outer surface 17 may be provided in a further function, for example, as a carrier of lighting parts, for example LEDs, or for receiving sensors that detect a movement in the pivoting region of the closing roof 2 and then stop the movement. Even a pure decorative surface, for example with a paint in body color or chrome trim, can be provided.
  • the windshield frame 3 facing towards the direction of travel F side facing transversely outwardly projecting and the width of the closed side windows outwardly superior visible edge 19 is provided, whose solder comprises a backward and a downwardly facing component.
  • the viewing edge 19 be a few inches wide and thus also be provided with camera or sensor units.
